It is the first leg of the Triple Crown, and it is held every year on the first Saturday in May at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Kentucky Derby was founded in 1875 by Meriwether Lewis Clark Jr., the great-grandson of William Clark, one of the leaders of the Lewis and Clark Expedition. Clark was inspired to create the race after attending the Epsom Derby in England, which is the oldest continuously held horse race in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first Kentucky Derby was held on May 17, 1875. A field of 15 horses competed in the race, which was won by a colt named Aristides. The race was run at a distance of 1.25 miles, and it was watched by a crowd of about 10,000 people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Kentucky Derby has been held every year since 1875, except for during World War I and World War II. The race has become a major sporting event, and it is watched by millions of people around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Kentucky Derby is a 1.25-mile race that is open to three-year-old Thoroughbred colts and geldings. The race is run on a dirt track at Churchill Downs. The winner of the Kentucky Derby is awarded the coveted Run for the Roses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Kentucky Derby is one of the most popular sporting events in the United States. The race draws a large crowd to Churchill Downs and is watched by millions worldwide. The Kentucky Derby is a major sporting event and is a source of pride for the state of Kentucky.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Some of the Most Famous Kentucky Derby Winners<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the years, the Kentucky Derby has been won by some of the greatest racehorses of all time. Here are some of the most famous Kentucky Derby winners:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Secretariat (1973): Secretariat is considered by many to be the greatest racehorse of all time. He won the Kentucky Derby by an astonishing 31 lengths, which is still the largest margin of victory in the race&#8217;s history.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Affirmed (1978): Affirmed is the only horse to have won the Triple Crown in undefeated fashion. He won the Kentucky Derby by a head and went on to win the Preakness Stakes and the Belmont Stakes by comfortable margins.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>American Pharoah (2015): American Pharoah was the first horse to win the Triple Crown in 37 years. He won the Kentucky Derby by a length and went on to win the Preakness Stakes and the Belmont Stakes by comfortable margins.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Justify (2018): Justify was the second horse to win the Triple Crown in four years. He won the Kentucky Derby by 2 \u00bd lengths and went on to win the Preakness Stakes and the Belmont Stakes by comfortable margins.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Kentucky Derby Today<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Kentucky Derby is still one of the most popular sporting events in the United States.
